Dia de los Muertos

Published: Oct. 26, 2014, midnight

Today's service will draw on the centuries old tradition of Dia de los Muertos or Day of the Dead as practiced in Mexico and other Latin American countries. We will welcome Mariachi Campiranos, a trditional mariachi band whose music contains both joyful and mournful elements. Dia de los Muertos has a playful aspect, including special bread, sugar treats, and artistic expressions around the theme of death. You are invited, if you wish, to bring a photo or some other item that reminds you of your loved one, to be placed on our ofrenda during the service.
